He walks away with few regrets
Bearing none of our grief

Requiem for an Ex-President
Your service to our country
Will echo through the generations
The effects of your decisions
Reverberate across the globe
What you leave us with
Is less than we once had
What you leave us with
Are graves, prosthetics and debt
The king is not dead
He’s deposed in disgrace
He walks away with few regrets
Bearing none of our grief
What you leave us with
Is less than we once had
What you leave us with
Is discord, distrust and doubt
I’d feel for the man
If he felt for us
All I have in my heart
Is this requiem
In mourning for us
But not for him
No honor to him
This requiem
